Srikanth Addala is the director of the biggest hit of the year, Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu is now looking for heroes. Sounds strange, right? He gave two big hits – SVSC and Kotta Bangaru Lokam, yet he has not started his next film. Because he wanted to start off a film called Gollabhama introducing actor Naga Babu’s son Varun Teja. But the project has been dropped off.

He feels cheated by Mega family and wants to prove his mettle with newcomers instead of persisting for stars.. So the director is now looking for newcomers for lead roles. Also buzz is that he himself may produce the film .

No packages, want only separate State.

Share
Telangana Political JAC convener Prof. Kodandaram has said the region does not want any packages. They want only separate State with all the 10 Telangana districts with Hyderabad as its capital, he added.

Speaking to mediapersons here on Wednesday, Prof. Kodandaram said the Kiran Kumar Reddy government had foiled the planned �peaceful Chalo Assembly Rally� by resorting to illegal mass arrests and prevented the people from reaching Hyderabad from all the districts.

The TPJAC chief said they would prevent Congress leaders from visiting the villages in the region from July 4. He said the JAC has set July 4 as a deadline for the Telangana Congress leaders to take a decision to come out of the ruling party and join the movement. Otherwise, they would be prevented from setting their foot in the Telangana villages.

Prof. Kodandaram asked the Centre to realise the gravity of the situation and make a clear statement on formation of separate Telangana State even now.
    

Dowry Case Against Sankaranna�s Family

Share
Congress senior leader and former minister is fond of making wild charges against others. He even charged the Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy and his brothers of smuggling red sanders and threatened to file a suit against him.

After the Green Fields land scam in which he was arrested, Sankar is now facing a problem from his own household.

Sankar�s daughter-in-law Vishnu Priya filed a petition in the high court, charging him of harassing her for dowry. She said though she had complained to the CCS police, they had not taken any action and urged the court to direct the police to arrest him.

Responding to the petition, the high court has on Wednesday issued notices to Sankar Rao, his son Sasank, DGP and the Central Crime Station women wing.

Vishnu Priya also alleged that Sanar Rao, her husband Sasank, mother-in-law Viswa Santi and Sankar Rao’s daughter Susmita were harrassing for dowry and asked that all of them be arrested. She said in her petition that the criminal court had earlier directed them to surrender and give the passports to the police and they had not complied with the direction. She said even the police had not acted on the court’s orders. She said the harrassment started after Sankar Rao’s daughter came back home.

It may be recalled that when the police tried to arrest him in the Green Field scam, he complained of heart problem and had to be rushed from police station to hospital. Later the court gave him anticipatory bail and asked him to surrender before the police. Through this process, the former minister managed to remain outside. But in cases of domestic violence, he would not be shown such considerations, say legal sources. It is being said that if the court considers this to be a case of domestic violence, Sankar would be arrested.     

Custody of Dharmana and Sabita was posted to June 25.

Share
Further hearing on the memo filed by the CBI for custody of former ministers Dharmana Prasada Rao and Sabita Indra Reddy was posted to June 25 for further hearing.

The former ministers submitted to the court that the CDs submitted by the CBI were not clear and they would file their counters after the original CDs were submitted. They pleaded with the court to direct the CBI to file original CDs.

It may be mentioned here that the CBI had submitted to the court the CDs of media conferences addressed by Dharmana and Sabita stating that what they told to the media amounted to contempt of the judiciary. Stating that the duo told the media that they did not commit anything wrong and claimed that they would come out clean, the CBI questioned how they could say that they would come out clean, when the matter was before a court. The CBI contended that this amounted to contempt of the judiciary. The court, which admitted the memos of the CBI, directed the former ministers to file their counters.

To this, the two said they would file their counters only after CBI submitted original CDs. Dharmana and Sabita told the court that they had only told the media why they had resigned. However, the CBI prosecutors told the court that they had taken the videos from the You Tube. The defence counsels of the ministers said the videos of You Tube were not authentic.

It may be recalled that Dharmana and Sabita had resigned from the cabinet after the CBI named them accused in the Jagan illegal assets case. They later held media conferences and claimed innocence. They exuded confidence that they would be able to prove their innocence in the court.

Taking objection to the two claiming innocence and stating that they would come out clean, the CBI contended that this amounted to contempt of court and sought their custody. The CBI said the two were likely to influence the witnesses if they were allowed to remain out.

Rahul Gandhi concentrating on Telangana, with a heavy package

Share
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi appears to be concentrating on the Telangana issue as elections are nearing. Congress High Command is reportedly preparing to come out with a heavy package to pacify the protagonists of both Telangana and Seemandhra. Party leadership has come to the conclusion that state bifurcation would not be possible at this juncture as there is stiff opposition to it from the Seemandhra leaders. As an alternative the leadership thought about proposing either Rayala Telangana or a heavy package. The final inclination appears to be only towards package. It is learnt that employment, poverty alleviation and other sops were being offered as part of the package.

Reports said that the Congress party’s core committee came to the conclusion that conceding Telangana would not be possible and preferred package. The package would include employment, quota for political posts, national status to Pranahita and Chevella projects and separate fund for the backward districts of Telangana. While legality would be provided to some of the commitments, there would be clear assurance on the others. It is being said that Rahul Gandhi has been seriously concentrating about the problem and was keen on resolving it at the earliest.

However, both the Congress and non-Congress leaders of Telangana are unlikely to accept package or any other solution to the Telangana tangle. Even the Congress ministers who met recently made it clear that nothing short of Telangana would satisfy them.
